Skinny Balsamic Mushroom Soup

November 7, 2017

If there is one type of recipe I have down, it’s how to make super healthy, creamy soup 🙂

I first got into the whole pureed soup thing around 4 years ago when I did my first Clean Program cleanse. I had tried their Chipotle Black Bean Bisque, and it seriously changed my life. Ok, so maybe not my life. But it definitely changed my view on soups in general.

After that I started experimenting with other types of pureed soups. I realized it is SO easy to cut out butter, heavy cream, and anything else bad for you, and still get a soup that is creamy and delicious! The secret is cannelloni beans. They create the perfect texture, while also adding protein!

Today we have an amazing Skinny Balsamic Mushroom Soup. One of my all time favorites, it’s super low in fat and calories, yet full of flavor. 🙂
